Soccer fanhouse: The Man of the Match on Saturday night in a field in the shadow of the Pilanesberg Mountains in northern South Africa was a 20-year-old, Andre Ayew, the French-born son of Ghana's greatest soccer player, Abedi Pele. He hemmed up the greatest U.S. Soccer player, Landon Donovan, for most of the match and last summer sparked the Under-20 Ghanaian squad to the first World Cup title, the U-20, in the history of Africa.
